<h1>Properties and Formatting dialog box: Color and Lines</h1>
<p>You can format the color and borders of your control, shape, or line 
 using the following Color and Lines options in the Properties and Formatting 
 dialog box. Follow the instructions below to modify color and lines: </p>
<p>These are the options in the Color and Lines section of the Properties 
 and Formatting dialog box when formatting a control:</p>
<ul type="disc" class="whs1">
	
<li class=p><p><span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Fill</B></span>: Specify 
 the following to determine how the control is formatted.</p></li>
</ul>
<p class="whs2"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Note</B></span>: 
 If DHTML is disabled, you cannot create custom colors in the color picker 
 or apply gradients. </p>
<ul type="square" class="whs3">
	
<li class=p><p class="whs2"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Color</B></span>: 
 Specify a color with which to fill the selected object by clicking the 
 arrow on the color menu and selecting a color. </p></li>
	<ul type="circle" class="whs4">
		
<li class=p><p class="whs2">Access additional colors 
 by clicking the <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>More Colors</B></span> button. 
 </p></li>
		
<li class=p><p class="whs2">Apply a color gradient, 
 which is a combination of two colors, to the object. To do so, select 
 the <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Gradients</B></span> button. In the Gradients 
 dialog box that opens, select the two colors to use for the gradient. 
 Then select a shading style in which to display the gradient to determine

	</ul>
	
<li style="list-style: disc;" type=disc class=p><p><span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Borders</B></span>:

	<ul type="square" class="whs3">

 borders appear around the selected object. This is the default setting.</p></li>
		
<li class=p><p><span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>All</B></span>: Borders 
 surround the selected object on all sides. After selecting this option, 
 from the drop-down list, select a line style for the border and, from 
 the color picker, a color. </p></li>
		
<li class=p><p><span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Custom</B></span>: 
 Determine whether the left, right, top, and bottom borders are displayed, 
 and if so, the type of line and color used for each border.</p></li>
	</ul>
</ul>
<p class="whs2"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Note</B></span>:
